Raj took on the infamous role of Tapu, in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, but very recently, Raj started disappearing from the show but there was no confirmation, until very recently when the new Tapu took over. Raj is currently focusing on his youtube channel and his social media content.
While we did enjoy watching these actors portray these beloved characters, and as much as their departures made us sad,the show must go on .
